Verse Scripture
 1  Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,
 2  [As] God liveth, [who] hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, [who] hath vexed my soul;
 3  All the while my breath [is] in me, and the spirit of God [is] in my nostrils;
 4  My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.
 5  God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.
 6  My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach [me] so long as I live.
 7  Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous.
 8  For what [is] the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?
 9  Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
 10  Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?
 11  I will teach you by the hand of God: [that] which [is] with the Almighty will I not conceal.
 12  Behold, all ye yourselves have seen [it]; why then are ye thus altogether vain?
 13  This [is] the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, [which] they shall receive of the Almighty.
 14  If his children be multiplied, [it is] for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
 15  Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.
 16  Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;
 17  He may prepare [it], but the just shall put [it] on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.
 18  He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth [that] the keeper maketh.
 19  The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he [is] not.
 20  Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.
 21  The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place.
 22  For [God] shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.
 23  [Men] shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
